    Wireless channel... try channel 8.
    Yep WMM is disabled. Ive got it on WPA2 Personal. DHCP on. Router 192.168.11.1. The ipod has some sort of graph feature that shows channel 6as a high peak so I tried that first. Then I did all 1-13 to be thorough. It made no difference. (The woman next door is also called Alison so I thought it best to drop the 'snores' bit out of the SSID) Maybe next step is call the manuf. and ask what router they recommend?

    Try a cheap D-Link router... The more generic the router, the better you are off. However, buy a good brand. I don't like SMC router... a bit of hit or miss there. I have US Robotics and it is pretty nice. Wireless G router is all you need. I don't think you need to spend any more than $40US for a G router.

    You don't have any other spare router? A friend with a router he is not using?

    Anything but a Linksys because I was looking at their features, they are too much for average folks.

    I am suspecting that you have a compatability issue between your router and the phones. D-Link is compatable with almost everything.

    Check my above post again... I edited as I add some more things for you to check...

    I am wondering if Easy Secure Setup is the culprit.
